Thanks PF might give them a go just have to look up Keene and find out how far they are, or maybe just pick up a few bags yeah just like I did with the eagle valley's. Ack I need to get back to work before I go broke, good thing I don't have dry storage space ! Thanks again PF
Ack 40 miles away a bit far to haul a ton of them butttt if they are the same price per bag I would definitely make the trip and this would finish off my stash for this year. I will have to give them a call and find out what they want per bag. If too much I can always head 3 miles up the road and grab a ton of Geneva as it sound like these are a very similar pellet . Was extremely impressed with the Geneva in my PelPro . Thanks again PF PS they open on Sunday ?
PF thanks again ! Went west instead of North out to Orange and grabbed a ton, took half today will get the other half tomorrow. 30 miles west not to bad fairly nice ride out on Route 2 use to doing 100 a day going to and from work. Not worried about gas or maintance wear and tear one of the good perks about driving a company truck,so I am not hesitant to travel for pellets. They should hit the hopper tomorrow.Look like a super nice pellets !
Part two of a one ton trip, very impressive pellets period but at their price I don't think you can do much better in the middle of burning season. Burning very hot and just as clean, in addition to having nearly no fines to speak . Thanks again for the heads up on these pellets !
what did you think of them? i had their VP in to see me a couple weeks back on a sales call. sounded like there was a lot of stock on the ground
I am sure slvrblkk will give you his take. My opinion is they were fantastic. Very low ash. Some complaints of the fines and hard time sliding.
Great, clean burning pellet BUT they funnel like crazy in the hopper. The pellets have a stickiness to them. You'll have 40 lbs in the hopper and the fire will go out with 20+ pounds that didn't slide down to the auger. Some people reported loads of fines in the bags too. There's fines but it's not real bad in my case but I do sift most of my pellets. Joe from Bucks said once that he has a love, hate for them. That is exactly what it's like. Would I burn them again??? They'd have to be fairly cheap. They actually make a great shoulder pellet where you're not burning full time yet and can keep tabs on the hopper.
Agree with everything Steve said Art , I burned 80 bags of them this year that I got from Lowe's fire sale they would have to be real cheap or I'll just buy more Hamer's @ $225 here's what they look like in my hopper that was at least 15 lbs that didn't slide stove shut down .
I like your thinking. The Lowes in QTown has alot of full pallets just waiting for a price drop!(Like I need more Pellets!)
My coworker's sister works at the Dickson City HD. He's checking with her to see if she could find anything out on a pellet sale.
I believe they've been calling Joe at Bucks too but he still has a couple pallets of regular AWF's from like two seasons ago, they just don't sell for him. That would be unfortunate if something were to happen to that mill. They give good pricing on them?
Only burned one bag so far, but these Cubex seem good. No dust or fines to speak of. The pellets are darker than I expected. They are very consistent length, I would say avg .75 inch, very few bits and pieces. They have a shiny / glossy surface and because of that, they slide really well. Kicking myself for not buying any of these before now.
